Needed some tools for an upcoming project and saw this brand with good reviews on Amazon. Ordered because of Prime, delivered a day or two later. Since my first order, I purchased a large torque wrench, several breaker bars, wrenches, ratcheting wrenches and ratchets along with sockets. At first I fully expected to break the ratchet on the wrench removing the front brake caliper brackets, the tool did just fine. Well finished and no complaints.

One review stated that they were made in Taiwan, in reality, it's an American company based in Michigan and while they do make and finish tools in Michigan, they have them made all over the world.

If you're fed up with Craftsman and looking for something better than Harbor Freight, check these out.

Thanks! I also purchased the large 1/2" torque wrench and it does fine.

Definitely a viable option since Craftsman is no where near what it was and Snap-on is ridiculously priced.

I also have bought several of their ratcheting wrenches, impact sockets and regular sockets and I have zero complaints. I was a Craftsman guy for years, but it's very obvious that Stanley owns them now. I'm a Kobalt guy mainly now, I love Lowe's in general, but these Tekton are solid!

Tekton is AWESOME.

Made in Taiwan for most part.

I have a few of their tools I bought 2 years or so ago

I have a huge breaker bar too.

It's huge.

I have two sets of Tekton impact sockets, and I have some Tekton ratchets. I've had them for about 2 years now and they are a beast. VERY high quality especially for the price. IMO, the quality is actually BETTER than all the newer Crapsman stuff coming out lately.

I used to sell them at my old job. I never had any complaints about them. They have a lifetime warranty and everything.

Really great products.

I recently bought a full set of there metric and standard impact sockets haven't had a chance to use them yet but they look like they will hold up pretty well
